2 Outline Key terms and propositions within Marxism Different approaches within Marxism Criticisms to Marxist theory within IR What is the relevance of Marxism today? Is Marxism helpful to explain current IR issues and processes?
3 Key terms and propositions } emphasis on totality social world has to be analysed as a totality } academic division of social world into different areas of inquiry history, philosophy, economics, political science, sociology, IR is not helpful } none can be understood without the knowledge of the others the social world has to be understood as a totality
4 } Marxism: A theory of capitalism, Marxist theory of Capitalism } 20 th century IR in historical perspective } Predominantly Western discipline: Anglo-American } Influenced by context of Cold War } Focused on: state security, international order, diplomatic relations, international organizations } Little attention to International Politics and International Economics
5 Key terms and propositions } Historical materialism a materialist conception of history changes in IR is explained as reflection of the economic development of society } Economic development is the motor of history } The central activity of society is economic production } Society is made up of classes Does Marx reduce everything to economy? Is Marxism economic reductionist?
6 Historical Materialism } A method of social inquiry: } Society is made up of structured realtions between social groups with different and conflicting interests- classes } Mode of production: } Two main classes: Bourgeoisie and Proletariat
7 Capitalist Accumulation } Source of surplus: } Amount of value that a worker can produce ın one day ıs grater than the value of their own labour-power, which has become a commodity. } Capitalist pays the worker the wage in return for their labourpower Sells the coomodities and gets the surplus He ends up with more abd he started off with (accumulation!)
8 Key terms and propositions } Base/superstructure model developments of the economic base determine political and ideological spheres!!! } the mode of production of material life conditions the social, political and intellectual life process in general Marx (1859), Contribution to the Critique of Political Economy
9 Key terms and propositions } emphasis on structure the structure of global capitalist system is decisive in approaching major issues in international relations such as wars and/or treaties
10 Key terms and propositions } mode of production capitalist mode of production capitalist mode of production a specific set of social relations within a specific historical period a. everything involved in production raw materials, machines and labour has an exchange value and thus has a price b. means of production such as factories, raw materials are owned by one class the capitalists c. workers have to sell their labour to the capitalist class in order to survive
11 Key terms and propositions } Class both at the national and international level! } Contrary to liberals which argue that there is harmony of interests in society Marxists hold that society is systematically prone to class conflict } the history of all hitherto existing societies is the history of class struggle Marx and Engels (1848), Communist Manifesto } What is the main axis of class conflict in capitalist societies?
12 IR and Marxism } How would Marxism then explain some of the problems within the IR as a discipline } War and peace } Conflict and cooperation } Structure } Agency
13 IR and Marxism } Marxism was once regarded as having little value for students of international relations Andrew Linklater } the challenge of Marxism to established patterns of thought, and to the existing state system, has led to its exclusion from the academic domain (Fred Halliday 1994: 47). } Why? } institutional barriers } main concern of Marxism such as social classes and modes of production resonates less with the major concerns of IR! } the fact that IR is almost wholly silent on what Marxism has taken as the central category of modern social analysis, namely capitalism, is itself indicative (Fred Halliday 1994: 48).
14 IR and Marxism } change in time A powerful tool to understand inequality and oppression in world system Third World studies especially since 1970s emphasis on developing a critical approach vis-a-vis global forms of dominance and dependence Marxism contribution major concerns of IR such as war, peace, nationalism and the state cannot be understood in isolation from class inequality, systems of production and technological revolutions Marxist contribution to understand globalisation there is a different understanding of the international sphere in Marxism not limited to relations between states but as a structure of economic and social relations
15 IR and Marxism } HM is a comprehensive general theory of political, social and economic action a systematic attempt to provide a theory of society Under globalisation more contributions to assess spread of capitalism e.g. state transformation inequality changing relations of production new spheres such as transnationalism global division of economic and political power under globalisation
16 World systems approach } Immanuel Wallerstein } All politics takes place within the framework of a capitalist world economy } States are not the only important actors rather social classes are also very important } Location of these states and classes determines their relations and interaction
17 World systems approach } Wallerstein } current world system emerged in Europe around 16th century } its driving force is capitalism: a system of production for sale in a market for profit and appropriation of this profit on the basis of individual or collective ownership Wallerstein } Relations between core and periphery is based on exploitation of periphery a process through which wealth is drained from periphery to core as a result the rich getting richer and poor getting poorer
18 World systems theory } Wallerstein added a semiperiphery category to the traditional core-periphery economic zones } semi-periphery has an intermediate role possessing characteristics of both core and periphery } a hybrid industrial base a zone for industries that no longer profitably produce in core e.g. textile & automotive
19 Core: democratic governments; high wages; import raw materials and export manufactures; high investments; welfare services Periphery: non-democratic regimes; export raw materials and import manufactures; low wage levels; no welfare services Semi-periphery: authoritarian governments; export and import manufactures and raw materials; low wages; low welfare services
20 World System Theory
21 Gramscianism } } A founding member of Italian Communist Party } prison } His main question: why did socialist revolution happen in Russia? } Hegemony!
22 Gramscianism } theory is always for some one and for some reason (Cox, 1981: 128). } is theory objective and value-free? } Problem-solving theory (accepts parameters of the current order) versus critical theory (aspires to challenge and change the prevailing order)
23 Gramscianism } Robert W. Cox } Three levels of analyses social relations of production forms of state world order
24 Criticisms } economic determinism to what extent political actors, events or the state can be understood in relation to socio-economic structure of society } To what extent the spheres of political and ideological are secondary to the economic } Ultimately economic mode of production (base) determines broader social and political spheres (superstructure)
25 Criticisms } Due to economic reductionism Marxists ignore crucial aspects of IR such as nationalism, balance of power and the role of geopolitics or geopolitical competition in IR } Nationalism has proven superior to class loyalties in mobilizing masses among oppressed and oppressers alike } Marx assumed that relations between states is `secondary` to class struggle
26 Criticisms } class reductionism (the need to historicize ideas!) } Marxism reduces agency to classes; ignoring other actors and political subjectivities due to their emphasis on relations of production } To what extent the agency to stimulate change in IR is labour? What happened to industrial labour?
27 Criticisms } To what extent capitalism is superseded by socialism this idea proved immature } Working class as the main agency in creating change in society?
